Best Campgrounds near Sebring, FL

Lake Kissimmee State Park Campground shows off classic Florida scenery with plenty of room to set up camp. You'll need to make reservations at both parks, especially from December through March when northerners come down for the winter. Book as far ahead as possible since these spots fill quickly during peak season. Follow the posted rules about fires and maximum stays at each campground. Keep your food secured since Florida's wildlife will definitely come looking for an easy meal. Most campsites come with bathrooms and picnic tables, which works well for families. If you're bringing kids, check which campgrounds have activities they might enjoy. Summer camping means dealing with Florida's heat and humidity, so bring extra water and sunscreen.
